Berklee City Music Network

Berklee City Music Network is a consortium of 46 community organizations across the United States, Canada, and Latin America committed to delivering high-quality contemporary music instruction to youth from underserved communities.

The network consists of out-of-schooltime programs that receive access to the Berklee PULSE Music Method, as well as other resources and support from Berklee College of Music.
